    Ex-Trump White House Adviser Makes Surprise Confession On Fox Business

     

         One of Donald Trump’s leading economic advisers
    now admits he was wrong about the gloomy predictions
    he made for the economy under democratic Joe Biden.

                an_clap

    “Mea culpa,” Fox Business host Larry Kudlow said
    on the air Thursday. “I was wrong about a slowdown
    and a recession, so was the entire forecasting fraternity.”

      kudlow finally comes around to the obvious truth

    Kudlow made a similar confession about the strength of the economy last month when the gross domestic product GDP jumped faster than expected.

    “He gets his due,” Kudlow said of Biden. 

    “If I were he, I would be out slinging that hash, too! No problem!”

    love for something to backup this claim.

     

    I run a breakfast and lunch diner in CT and believe me my “wages” have not gone up but you know what has? The cost of everything we purchase and utilize. On a personal level you also know what’s gone up? 

    My Rent

    My Electric Bill

    My Personal Grocery Bills

    My Cell Phone Bill

     

    Wages = Same (and know why?) 

     

    Restaurants Food Distributors Prices Rising DRASTICALLY!

     

    So please explain to me how “wages are outpacing prices” 

    LMFAO get a clue

    Kudlow was director of the National Economic Council under Trump for nearly three years.

    Kudlow added that despite a wave of lay-offs across the country, the unemployment rate remains low, and monthly job gains are generally quite positive!

    According to Axios, business council survey of 138 Fortune 500 chief executive officers show confidence is up to highest level in two years.  Ditto for consumer confidence from University of Michigan index of consumer sentiment.

    @KellyM_1964

     Yeah, a positive cycle is the mode.  We will most likely continue to see something akin to 2-steps forward, one-step back in the markets as it continues a slow upward trajectory over time.  Getting some decent dividends already and I expect it to rise.

    As well it should be.  The economic indicators are there.  Biden and the Dems have had a tough road to traverse and rescue America since being handed the WORST situation to a new administration in at least the last 75 years if not our entire history.

    To be fair, COVID has put a wrinkle on a lot of this and should always have an asterisk next to it....Trump and Biden were/are in difficult positions as it relates to economy numbers....the rise and fall during and after COVID should be viewed as a slant eyed figure...not normal circumstances...jus sayin'

    The tech-heavy Nasdaq composite index and

    before the Federal Reserve began raising rates.

    The S&P 500, meanwhile, gained 0.5%
    to close at a new high of 5,096.27.
    It reached its last high earlier this month.

       Feb 29  New York, CNN — The tech-heavy Nasdaq composite index and S&P 500 broke records Thursday afternoon. The Nasdaq closed at a new high of 16,091.92, about 35 points above its last closing high of 16,057.44, reached in November 2021 before the Federal Reserve began raising rates. The S&P 500, meanwhile, gained 0.5% to close at a new high of 5,096.27. It reached its last high earlier this month.

    Usually the markets have liked to finish up by the end of the week and I have taken some positions hoping for that!  thumbs_up
